The Use of Rabbinical Literature as a Historical Source : The Problem of Agunot.
Original language description
This paper focuses on the methodological and interpretative problems that a historian encounters while reading and examining rabbinical sources. The first part of the presentation deals with a specific genre of rabbinic works, namely the Responsa literature (Sifrut HaShut), and outlines possible ways of using this type of primary source in a historical research. In the second part of the paper, the problem of the so called "deserted wife" (aguna; sometimes translated as "deserted wife") has been chosenin order to exemplify my own approach to the Responsa.
